Denise Richards says Charlie Sheen altered “sperm donor” e-mail


Denise Richards was on Larry King yesterday, and in case you’re wondering how a washup-up actress who’s launching a reality show is scoring an interview on Larry King, Larry mentioned his “friend” Ryan Seacrest, who is producing the show, at the beginning of the interview. (Seacrest is rumored to be replacing King when the talk show host inevitably retires.)

Richards went over the same old tired ground she always treads: her friendship with Heather Locklear was over before she was with Richie Sambora; Heather and Richie had split before she started dating him; her ex husband Charlie Sheen is spreading lies about her, etc.

People Magazine is reporting that Richards told Matt Lauer on The Today Show, that the e-mail she sent to Charlie Sheen’s girlfriend, Brooke Mueller, reportedly asking for Charlie’s sperm to have another child with him was doctored and that’s not what she wrote. Mueller and Sheen claim that Richards was trying to reconcile with Sheen and was rejected, but now she’s saying that e-mail was changed to make it out to be something it wasn’t. This is the same thing she said on Larry King Live, but she didn’t sound convincing at all to me. King had to press her to get her to answer the question, and she did it in a roundabout way:

KING: Our guest is Denise Richards. Her new reality show, “Denise Richards: It’s Complicated,” premiers on E on May 26th. I want to further clarify something. Someone said that there’s supposed to be an e-mail about sperm and you and what is it?

RICHARDS: You know what? Like I said, every chance that Charlie tries to discredit me or say negative things about me in the press, he does. And the fact of the matter is I have no desire to have another child with Charlie. Nothing against his sperm. I have two beautiful kids but I don’t want anymore of it.

KING: There’s no e-mail that exists —

RICHARDS: No truthful e-mail that exists.

KING: Is this supposed to be an e-mail from you to him?

RICHARDS: There’s supposed to be an e-mail from me to his girlfriend.

KING: Saying?

RICHARDS: Saying that I want his sperm and wanted to get back together, which — the date of that e-mail, I was with Richie. So if I wanted anyone’s sperm, it would have been Richie’s sperm, not Charlie’s.

KING: I — so this is a phony e-mail, you think?

RICHARDS: This is a doctored e-mail.

KING: Doctored e-mail?

RICHARDS: Yes.

She doesn’t deny it right away, she says they’re trying to smear her, she was with Richie Sambora based on the “date of the e-mail.” If she didn’t send it, why didn’t she say straight away “they faked that e-mail and changed what I wrote.” She skirts around it instead and only says the e-mail is doctored once King prompts her.

And today she told Matt Lauer flat out that the e-mail was doctored. It sounds to me like she’s trying to get her story straight:

“That e-mail is not legitimate,” Richards, 37, told interviewer Matt Lauer. “It’s a doctored e-mail. I would never send an e-mail to his … girlfriend, and, at the time of that e-mail, I was with Richie [Sambora]. If I wanted anybody’s sperm, I’d have asked for Richie’s.”

[From People.com]

Again, she’s relying on the date of the e-mail and saying she was with Richie so why would she say that? It just sounds fishy.

As for Sambora, Richards told Larry King that “Richie and I are still friends. We will always be friends,” but she said she doesn’t communicate with Charlie and “I do not know this person. And I have children with him.”

On Sambora’s DUI, Richards said “He made a mistake. He feels terrible about it. And the irony is he’s — with the whole child endangerment, he’s an amazing father. And he’s stepping up to the plate and taking responsibility for his mistake.”

Ironic how she defends a guy she dated for less than a year for getting a DUI with his daughter in the car but attacks the husband and father of her two children every chance she gets. Sheen isn’t an innocent party in all this, but the more Richards talks the better he looks.

    A brief waitress-customer encounter with Charlie Sheen in the 80’s convinced me that he’s always been a reprehensible person. And like attracts like. This will likely be the highlight of her career: appearing on Larry King to clarify whose sperm she actually wants.

    I work in the broadcast industry and am up on that gossip as well. This Ryan Seacrest replacing Larry King rumor started in the entertainment industry. The more credible rumors in the broadcast industry say both that Katie Couric will replace King… and most believable of all, that the show will simply go off the air when King retires. No replacement. King’s contract runs through 2011.

    I don’t believe this lying skank for one moment. She is a shady, shady excuse for a mother and woman and I wish she would go away.

    All she’ll be remembered for is being the worst Bond girl.

    Unless she turns Dina Lohan which is a definate possibility.

    I do not use this word lightly-I save it for those most deserving-in fact I believe I have only called one other woman this-but Denise Richards is a cunt.

  5. anon69 says:

    oh my-where did that come from? You see what this woman does-Charlie is no prize I know, but this chick….

  6. Cici says:

    the truth of the matter is not one of us really knows anything about their situation.

  7. Jody says:

    Holy Moses, Thank you Elisha for clearing that insane rumor about Ryan “elfen” Seacrest taking over an actual news worthy program. As soon as I read that, the word “Apocalypse” popped into my head.

  8. Linda says:

    Can we ship both Denise Richards and Heather Mills off to someplace and never hear from them again. I don’t even put Denise Richards in the woman category – she is a bitch who only cares about herself and trying to rectify her public image. This bitch makes me ill and I truly feel sorry for her daughters.

  9. Blondie says:

    All I have to say is, those poor little girls..how much therapy do you think they’ll be in need of before their 13th birthdays….

  10. Fillup says:

    I dont belive Denise to be a cunt, she is soo Beautiful & Gorgeous.By the way she can have my sperm any time.

  11. Blisterd says:

    Not having a great knowledge of either one of them, I still have to say that this kind of payout is what makes some ex-husbands go insane and do bad things. Not only is she sucking him dry, she’s going on TV and mocking him. I don’t condone violence, but if he were to whack her upside the head I’d understand why. She’s a skank. She’s not attractive either; hideous is more like it.

    Sperm donor- more like a cum catcher.

    *I’d still hit it*

    *I’m still so ashamed*
